Ties have always worked. You'll have to post a sample for us to check why they don't work for you. And, BTW, where did you find a "freeware" copy of version 2012? A demo of Finale 2012 hasn't been available from MakeMusic for several years now.

Finale 2014.5

GPO5, JaBB3, GIO, COMB2, GWI, GIFF, Steinway Basic.

Windows 7; 10 GB RAM.

I hope you are using the free Notepad version and not some pirated kludge. If it is pirated, may your machine blow up and don't bother us with more questions.
However, it could be that your ties are slurs.

One of the most common mistakes made by new users is to confuse ties with slurs. I don't use Notepad, but I assume there is a tie command in simple entry just like there is in Finale. Use that.

Ease up, guys. If you look at the page http://www.finalemusic.com/products and scroll down to NotePad, you will see that "Finale" is in big letters, and "notepad" is about one quarter the size. Calling the product just Finale freeware is not out of the realm of possibility.

So let's (for the moment) assume that NotePad is what he has, and that he does not, in fact, know the difference between a tie and a slur. He certainly isn't the first poster who didn't. And even if he does know the difference, if he is trying to learn the program by just binking around, there is no button that says "tie" and another that says "slur."

There is another possibility also.
That Finale 2012 demo was installed years ago, has no saving options left because it was never activated, and of course can not be activated now even if wanted to do so.

But that would have nothing to do with ties and slurs. All it would do would be to prevent him from saving a posting a document.
